Today's News
Happy Birthday, Scott F.

Barry’s niece brought a donation of locally grown cantaloupe and brought an aloe vera plant, which should help with sunburn – although it sounds like something waterproof would have been more appropriate today.

The second half of the show last night was rained out. But the Colts’ score was good. The corps drove through storms last night on the way to El Paso but still arrived just about on time. The cooks were trying to dodge another rainstorm today. Big black cloud overhead, though.

They had someone out to see about a possible propane leak in the burners and that got fixed. That’s all I’ll say about that.

Way to Go Colts 84.150 GO RED!

All of us Minnesotan's as far as I know are safe and not part of the Bridge Disaster. But very close to our home. I hope the rain stops for tonights show, or is it in an indoor stadium? See you all soon.

I'm happy to hear all of our Minnesota friends are doing okay!

Two good peices of news...the fire extinguisher does work and with 3 head cooks you can turn 14 loaves of bread into french toast in 40 minutes. Thanks to all the cook volunteers this week and every week. You make a huge difference. --Barry
